The World of American Drama: From the Los Angeles Patrol

Chapter 201 The Coveted Twins ([-])
"Have the domestic staff and Evan's recent list of litigants been checked?"

Rossi said, took the laptop from Rhett's hand, and looked at the series of question marks on the call records and notes just now.

"A detailed report has been sent from the local FBI office, but given what the kidnappers knew about the Davenport family, we should investigate further."

Red took another computer and got to work.

"Tell me what you think." Rossi motioned JJ to follow Cheryl who ran into her room because she didn't want to cry in front of everyone, and asked Jack's opinion.

Jack quickly sorted out his thoughts in his brain, and spoke slowly.

"Tracey looked a little delirious on the phone, probably drugged, and she said she saw the moon, and I suspect it was a light, probably a crude bare bulb in a basement or garage."

"What worries me is that Trish can see things, which means she is not blindfolded, and the criminal is beside her. If she sees the other person's face, then once he gets the money, he is likely to be arrested."

When he saw Evan Davenport walk out of his daughter's room, he fell silent. This is not the time to irritate the victim's family.

Rossi also quickly changed the subject, analyzed the call records just now, and combined the notes made by Rhett.

"When the kidnapper made the request, it was as if it was written in advance, lacking due emotion and pause."

A word 'great reading' flashed in Jack's mind, but he couldn't find a suitable word to describe it.

"But when talking to Cheryl, his tone made me very uncomfortable."

Speaking of which, he almost got stuck again. How do you describe greasy in English?No one can understand OIL.

Fortunately, others felt similarly, and Rhett nodded in agreement, "That's why I think the kidnappers knew the Davenport sisters."

At this time, Cheryl, who had released her emotions, walked out of the room accompanied by JJ, and forced a smile to everyone.

"I'm ready."

Fifteen minutes passed quickly, and the phone rang again.

"Everything is done by Cheryl alone. Cheryl packs the money. Cheryl sends the money. If she has a tracker on her body or uses a double, Trish will die."

"Cheryl drives her own car, no one is allowed to accompany her, no one is allowed to follow her, no aerial surveillance is allowed, all such surveillance is intolerable."

"When Cheryl is driving, I will give orders through the mobile phone, and the money must be delivered on time at 3 o'clock in the morning, otherwise, Trish will die!"

As the other party hung up the phone, everyone present fell into silence. After a long time, Rossi spoke to Evan Davenport.

"How long will it take you to collect 100 million?"

Evan Davenport's eyes were dull, and it took him a while to react.

"I have asked the accountant to prepare it before, and I can get it together at night."

Don't look at the position of administrative assistant of the Federal Prosecutor's Office with the word assistant. A non-appointed administrative assistant like Evan Davenport is a member of the old American civil service system.

His position is protected by the civil service system, and he will not be dismissed when the elected prosecutor loses the election, so as to ensure the stability of the procuratorate and the continuity of work.

In other words, the entire procuratorial organization in the United States is supported by more than 3000 administrative bureaucrats like him.

The assistants appointed by the prosecutors who are elected and only have a term of two or three years are all politicians who fool voters and basically do nothing practical.

Therefore, although 100 million cash is a bit painful for the Davenport family, if you think about it, you can still get it.

This is also the reason why a seemingly ordinary kidnapping case can make a BAU action team that is still being formed and not even fully staffed be dispatched urgently.

"Jack and JJ are ready, we can't let Cheryl go alone." Rossi ordered.

"But the other party said, if you see other people." Evan Davenport was a little worried.

Seeing that he had lost his mind, Rossi reminded, "Cheryl is also your daughter."

Jack also comforted, "Don't worry, we will use an ordinary car to track, the one with dark glass, so we won't be found."

Evan sighed dejectedly, still nervous, "Please be careful, if found out, Trish will die, if my daughter dies I will."

Cheryl stepped forward to hug her father, and comforted her softly, "It's okay, Daddy, I trust them, besides, we have no choice."

Leaving Davenport and his daughter in the house, Rossi gave the BAU people a look, and the three followed him out of the house and into the backyard.

"This is wrong, everything is very wrong, I strongly suspect that the kidnappers are not here for money." Rossi said with affirmation.

"Tell me, Jack, if you were a kidnapper, what would you ask for?"

Jack desperately recalled the relevant plots in various American criminal investigation and crime dramas, combined with the knowledge he learned in the FBI Academy.

"It is not allowed to call the police. The cash must be old banknotes without consecutive numbers. It is not allowed to put trackers or dyeing devices in the money bag."

Reid suddenly realized, "But the kidnapper didn't mention these things. He kept emphasizing Cheryl's name in the second call to arrange the ransom. What he really wanted was Cheryl."

"Then we can't let Cheryl go, she will be in danger." JJ said anxiously.

"No, now he is taking the initiative and holding the biggest bargaining chip in his hand. The transaction is going on as usual. We can't ignore Trish's safety." Rossi said and looked at Jack seriously.

"If there is only one kidnapper, are you sure that Cheryl will be absolutely safe?"

Jack's tone was relaxed and full of confidence, "If he wants to kidnap Cheryl in the same way, give me an AR-15, let alone one person, I can shoot all four or five of them within three seconds."

"No." Rossi raised her hand in a negative gesture.

"We have to keep alive. We can't take this risk until we find Trish's whereabouts. You just need to keep Cheryl safe."

Jack shrugged, "No problem, I can scare him away, but then? We still don't have Tracy's whereabouts."

Rossi smiled mysteriously, "When he is done, it will be our turn."
-
At 2 o'clock in the morning, Cheryl carried a large bag of cash into a yellow Beetle and drove towards the location designated by the kidnappers.

Jack was driving a black Mercedes, and JJ was sitting in the co-driver. They kept a distance of more than 100 meters from Cheryl's car.

Cars now have their own GPS positioning, and Cheryl's mobile phone is also kept in a monitoring state. With Reid reporting the situation on the communicator at any time, they just need to stay far behind.

　Changing the plot is exhausting, and we should try our best to avoid logical mistakes.

　　The first case in BUA will not be greatly changed. If there is a more perfect plot in the future, I will not make major changes. The logic of many cases in the original drama is perfect and very exciting. Of course, the too tragic Whether it’s a bridge or a pity, I’ll still let classmate Jack save the scene in time.
